Hi!

Just wanted to let you know that the warning introduced in
[PATCH] core remove PageReserved
triggers when using vbetool, which is needed on several systems for proper
suspend-to-mem support:

[4301282.746000] program vbetool is using MAP_PRIVATE, PROT_WRITE mmap of
VM_RESERVED memory, which is deprecated. Please report
this to linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Reports of this haven't generated many results yet, that's why I'm
addressing this with a subject line which startles more people ;)
